MHD
38 articles
Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) studies the behavior of conducting fluids subjected to magnetic fields. Jean-Pierre Petit has made major advances in this field, particularly in MHD propulsion and aeronautical applications.
An MHD experiment project for students
A MHD manipulation project for students, with water purification applications.
Magnetohydrodynamics MHD explanations and history
MHD is the study of magnetohydrodynamics, which deals with the interaction between conducting fluids and electromagnetic fields.
Start of MHD1 handling
The text explains the phenomenon of shock waves in a supersonic flow, using a hydraulic analogy.
MHD3 principle of electromagnetic force
The text explains the principle of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and how electromagnetic forces can be used to manipulate the fluid around a supersonic moving object.
MHD4 principle and operation of an MHD generator
The text explains how an MHD generator works, converting the kinetic energy of a fluid into electricity.
Start of MHD5 experiment
The article describes a magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) experiment using a hydraulic shock wave to simulate a shock tube.
Lenticular aerodynamic and MHD propulsion
The text explains the principles of MHD propulsion, using Lorentz forces to move objects through the air.
The MHTEL laser (High-Energy Tactical Laser)
The MHTEL laser is a high-energy mobile system developed by Northrop Grumman, capable of destroying projectiles in flight.
Russian MHD torpedo technology
The MHD torpedo was developed in the 1970s and became operational in 1980, with a speed of 1,000 knots.
MHD and shock wave cancellation
The article discusses the concept of shock wave cancellation, introduced in the 1970s, and its importance in American military projects.
A film showing the MHD system of the B2
A film shows the B2's MHD system in action, revealing a visible electrical discharge phenomenon during transonic flight.
MHD and Faraday hypersonic generator
MHD (magnetohydrodynamics) was invented by Michael Faraday. It has two aspects: MHD accelerators and MHD generators.
Plasma ionization MHD converters
The document presents a new type of induction and ionization-controlled MHD accelerator, which could become an MHD aircraft.
